Flowdan | Bars of Steel

Listen, you hear that? It's Flowdan absolutely demolishing the booth for the first Bars of Steel sesh for 2024.
The legendary East London grime MC worked up heart rates with a flawless flow over the top of a nasty beat by G-REX, PEEKABOO and Skrillex - the same team that brought us 'BADDERS'.
With a "fun and games" writing process of "bouncing ideas off the wall" and hanging onto anything that "hits me back in my face", Flowdan has laid the gauntlet for spitting bars in the booth for 2024.
Produced by:
@Skrillex @PEEKABOObeats @grexbeatz
This is Bars of Steel, where we invite the best established and emerging rappers into the booth to show us what they’ve got.

[@doctor_who5203]

It was produced by Skrillex that's why! Look up Skrillex - Badders, flowdan is on it

[@itsnamora]

@@doctor_who5203 Also G-Rex and Peekaboo , all 3 insane producers. (Edit: lmao I said this before he did in the video)

[@MnemonicTakahashi95]

Great MC! Love Flowdan's stuff with The Bug

[@webleeoz]

2008 - Dubstep. The Bug - London Zoo what an album. Skeng, Jah War (especially the Loefah remix) These tunes put Flowdan on the map for me. So satisfying to see him get his flowers. Now a grammy winner 👏👏👏👏👏

[@FelonyBellend]

Same, the first time I heard him on Skeng ?! . . Oh my days ! 😅🔥🔥🔥

[@sketcharmslong6289]

Mega props for the jar war remix! One of the greatest all time

[@wizewizard1840]

Indeed. Dubstep hit hard back then. Miss those times.

[@DubstepDevo]

The loefah remix is so heeeavy

[@budsteppin99]

Bro it took us like 6 months until we actually got the album over here cross the pond 🤣

[@vasileiospgr]

[@TimOnTheNet]

[@ghostgirl10]
